Gentlest of hugs <3

I managed 1/2 mile yesterday and then just lay down and said, "OK, 2021, you got me, I"m done today!".... it's okay. You have a lot going and coming and in motion. rest, amigo. We're ehre. We're sending you ou rlove.

Huge hug.... I'm glad that you caught up on your sleep Muji.... It sounds though like you need some more rest

Another hug.... I am sorry things are rough right now.... xo

Oh, boy. I didn't click "I'm in a crisis" on the box below the post starting this thread because it's about time I ran out of steam in this pandemic and I'm sure most of us feel this way. But after I gave my Easter talk at church this morning as guest speaker today. church folks wanted for me to keep talking to them about PTSD stuff after church. It went on all the way until 4pm! Holy cow, was I ever dead tired on my feet by then!

I came home and CRASHED on my couch from then until now, when I just woke up to do my DS PTSD volunteering tonight. Again, no walk for me today either, and I know for sure missing a walk a day two days in a row hasn't happened all pandemic year for me.

And tomorrow I have to get back to my full time job in the morning. Argh. I'm really happy that I only have 33 days left until I retire from 40 years of teaching. However, it's clear to me that I have to retire early at age 62 because I can't muster the energy to make it to age 65 with kidney disease. I'll be staggering across the finish line in 33 days to retire early at age 62 without going on disability. I'm so tired tonight right now that it literally hurts.

((((((((((((((Muji))))))))))))))

Hugs Muji. Hang in there!

Thanks, y'all, unlike the effect my exhaustion over the weekend had on me, I was able to get up and force myself to take a walk today. Unlike the cold April snowy days last week, it was finally a warm nice day for walking today. Even though I hadn’t walked over the weekend—the first time I’d missed walking in months—I still felt good again. I appreciate your support through the weekend.

Hugs Muji.
I am glad you got your walk in, and hopefully a repeat today. It's good to put yourself in the schedule. I have to remember that myself. too. I feel like I have been running from one thing to the next ...until I fall exhausted and my body says to. New pencils and sketch books to work with have arrived.

I slept as well as walking, stitcht! I'd been fighting PTSD insomnia for a month. Sleeping is grand!!
